GAV stands for GPL Arcade Volleyball, and is an SDL remake of the old
dos game Arcade Volleyball for several platform (currently Linux, Windows,
BeOS and Mac OS X are supported). So far it is playable already, but we are planning on
introducing several extra features with respect to the original game, while
still preserving its sheer addictiveness! So far we already added:

themes support

networking game

more than 2 players games

several configuration options

Why AV?

It is fun. Play it for awhile: it is simple, fast, it just catches on.
It's silly -- yes -- but try and play it with friends. It takes 5 seconds
to figure out how to play, and the 'funky' physics somehow just appeals.
You could see it as a 'party' game; say you're throwing a party, you'd
have that sort of game in the middle of several drinks, projected on a
large screen, to have people have fun, engage in tournaments and laugh all
through the game. Just as you'd have with, say, pong. You wouldn't play
Warcraft or Flight Simulator in those situations, or would you. Even for
a nerds' party we're talking about.
